Another very rare and valuable red wine is the Marchesi De' Frescobaldi - Ornellaia 2010 special edition. This bottle has been created in collaboration with Michelangelo Pistoletto to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the winery.
On the site there are also many other wine masterpieces, such as the Sassicaia 1985 by Tenuta San Guido (the very year that gave birth to the myth of Sassicaia), the Petrus Pomerol 2015 (characterized by hints of citrus, candies, mulberries, cedar with touches of anise and lavender, well distinguishable on the nose) and the 3 litres Masseto dell'Ornellaia 1995 (best combined with game and foie gras).
Ruby red or plum colored, with pepper or leather rather than fruity notes, each wine has its own personality and distinctive character which accompanies it as time passes by.
Savouring fine italian red wines is a true sensory experience

From smell to taste, tasting a fine red wine is a triumph of flavors, smells and colors. It is the result of tradition and experience gained over time, handed down from generation to generation, under the banner of quality and excellence.
Thus, tasting a red wine turns into a unique experience for all five senses.
Every Italian red wine has its own fascinating history
The different characteristics of a italian wine make it unforgettable. Discovering its infinite facets is essential to fully appreciate and combine it at best, so as to enhance the dish with which it is accompanied.
For this reason, Enoteca Properzio provides technical sheets - with names, countries, regions and descriptions of wines - and detailed images, presenting all the hundreds of bottles and cellars available on the site.
It is also possible to perform a refined search of the label through the vine or price filters, as well as the year - going back in time to the 50s - or, for example, the formats (from 0.375 up to 6 liters).

We are at the Giuseppe Quintarelli winery. Silvio Quintarelli founded the company at the turn of the 20th century. The first vineyards of this historic winery were located in Figàri in the municipality of Marano di Valpolicella. Even then its wines were popular overseas and indeed were exported to the United States in small oak casks and demijohns. In 1924, the company moved to the valley and its present location and it was here that Silvio and his family continued their business. The 1950s brought generational handover, with Giuseppe, the youngest son, now managing the winery. He is the heart and soul of Quintarelli wines.
Quintarelli wines: perfect for aging

He was the one who gave the winery its name, who wrote its history, ensuring the success of Amarone and making his wines famous in Italy and around the world. Giuseppe is the one who has developed the winery, leading it to grow and innovate. However, he has never lost sight of what has given it strength over the years, that is, the traditional method, allowing only a few bunches to fully ripen, respecting nature and its seasons, using exclusively natural materials for growing the vines, handling the grapes and the wine. The wines in the Quintarelli cellars have two characteristics in common: a natural disposition for ageing for at least 10 years in wooden barrels and in bottles, which improves the wine and its characteristics and a liveliness that continues after the bottle has been opened.
